scaryice 453 Member · Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 After giving up on Valkyrie Profile, I next tried out Shadow Madness. That game...is a mess. Not gonna touch that one again. I did start and beat something else this week, however: Galerians is defeated. Okay action (psychic powers instead of guns!) mixed with god-awful voice acting. I felt like it started off strong, but couldn't take it to the next level. Some cool moments, but nothing you need to play. I was surprised to learn that #1 - this game has a PS2 sequel, #2 - it came out in America, and #3 - it's not crazy expensive. Although most people seem to like it less than the first. I've now beaten four of the most prominent "bad" survival horror games on the PSX: Countdown Vampires, Galerians, Martian Gothic, Overblood. Anything else I should check out? Out of those four, the worst was probably Countdown Vampires. The opening cutscene was so great, but everything after that just let me down. Ok action, but generic. Next is Overblood, which had a lot of great cutscenes, but not much in the way of fun gameplay. Martian Gothic had lots of puzzles with some interesting lore, but felt very unpolished. It's a close contest for the top spot between that one and Galerians. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner 2,331 Member · Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Vandal Hearts is complete. I even got the good ending just because it's more fun to do so. I'm not sure what I will move on to next, but it won't be Vandal Hearts II. I just couldn't get into that game. The original is one of my favorite games of all time, but they went in too far of a different direction for the sequel and it's just not for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Vandal Hearts being an easy, basic game (albeit fun). It probably only got as much as attention as it did due to being one of the earlier rpgs on the system, so I can understand why the sequel was mostly ignored.

TDIRunner 2,331 Member · Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Tekken 3 is also complete. I thought I would pop in something simple after putting about 20 hours into Vandal Hearts. I hadn't played this game since High School, but it was always one of my favorite fighting games and it's one of the only fighting games I've ever beaten. I guess that means it's kind of easy since I'm not very good at fighting games, but it's still super fun with lots of good characters and great secret characters. Unfortunately, I don't have my old save, so I will have to unlock everything again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an odd way to put it. This franchise usually refers itself as MK. Even the North American cover for Mortal Kombat 3 says "MK3" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that it's the name of the game, but in the context of the storyline, why would the tournament be called the Mortal Kombat Trilogy? For the record, I was just joking around.

TDIRunner 2,331 Member · Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 I figured I would mention that I'm in the middle of a Tomb Raider play through. I'm currently on level 11 of 15, so I expect to have it finished up by the weekend. I'll probably move on to Tomb Raider II after this, but not sure if I'll do the others. I could never get into the other PS1 TR titles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner 2,331 Member · Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Tomb Raider is done. TRII will probably take me a week or two. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner 2,331 Member · Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Tomb Raider II is complete. I love this game, but man is it a lot more challenging than the original. Played using the original copy I bought within the first week it was released. Got most of the secrets too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
